INTERNAL REVENUE.
Annual Report Of Com missioner
Miller.


WASHINGTON, November 9.-Joseph
s. Miller, Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, submitted his annual report
to the Secretary of the Treasury to-
day. The total receipts from all
sources of internal revenue for the fis-
cal year ending June 30, 1857, were
$11S, ,829 ,523 as compared with
SIG, ,OO2 1863 for 1886. 1t is esti-
mated that $12O,OOo,O00 will be
collected from various sources
of internal revenue during the current
fiscal year, provided that no changes
are made in the ratio of taxation now
imposed by the internal reyenue'law.
COLLECTION CHARGES.
The total cost of collection for the
past fiscal year including the salaries Of
officers, etc., was 81 ,065, ,l49, being
about ~ per cent of the amount
collected. The cost during the previ-
Gus year was about 4 per cent Of col-
lection.
NEXT YEARS EXPENSES.
The estimated expenses for the
next fiscal year amount to "a, 12O,28O.
An additional head of division and
two messengers are asked for to ex'
ecute the provisions OF the oleomar-
garine law. The general condition Of
the service is reported to be good. A
reduction Of . number of Internal
Revenue districts by the executive
order of May last has very consider
ably lessened the loss of collecting In
ternal Revenue taxes. and has not in
any manner been detrimental to the
interest of taxpayers.
AS TO UNPAID TAxEs..
So far as he has been informed Com
missioner Miller suggests that the
question whether the United States
has now any authority for the collec-
ton of the direct tax remaining un-
paid, be taken into consideration. If
it is held that the tax can be collected
proper steps, he says, should be taken
to collect it, unless there is some prob
ability of legislative action authorizing
further suspension.
DECREASE IN DIsrILLERIES.
In the grain distilleries there has
been decrease in the mum Der OF
large ones. The Commissioner re-
news his recommendation of last year
in regard to the taxation of the frac-
tional parts of gallon OF distilled
spirits. The great falling off in as
sessment of overdue taxes on distilled
spirits. he reports, is due to the fact
that there were onlv 10.70l ,425
gallons of spirits in distillery
warehouses at the beginning of 1887
on which the tax would become due
under the terms OF warehousing bonds.
AS there were l2,7SS,297 gallons OF
such spirits in bond at the beginning
OF the present fiscal year, some in
crease in assessments of this character
may be expected during the year.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.~
The Times commenting OH the State
election says that the vote of yester-
day serves notice on the Republican
party that Platt and Blaine who for the
time being Platt represented, must be
given up or all hope of success in the
Presidential campaign next year must
be abandoned; that such a notice has
been served is a great gain for an hon
est government, not only in this State
but in the nation.
THE TRIBUNE"
Says: In yesterdays voting it
must be said that the country
reaffirms its verdict against Presi-
dent Cleveland and party. We see no
reason for Republican dismay in, this
result. The Democrats have won by
the most tremendous exertions.
THE WORLD
Under the head of : "Three Thing
Settled" says: "The result of the
election in this State settles three
points as thoroughly as any political
event can be settled in advance. Pres
ident Cleveland will be renominated
by his party, Blaine will not be re-
nominated by the Republicans and
George will not control the election
next year. New York is the pivotal
State. Cleveland's friends have had
a complete triumph. 1t seems that
the German Republican vote very
la gely came over to the Democratic
side, and with the increased Prohihi-
ton vote much more than made up
the disaffection caused by the labor
| movement.
THE "sUN".
Says: Due credit for the cohesion and
confidence that brought about the
glorious result of yesterday should be
given to Grover Cleveland, whose
manly and sensible letter was as
timely as it was we'll advised.
THE "HERALD"
SAYS: The elections are a complete
triumph for the Administration. Vic
tory is along the whole line. National,
State and municipal administrations
were alike on trial, and the verdict as
regards President Cleveland, Governor
Hill and Mayor Hewitt was, "Well
done, good and faithful servants"
THE "IRIsH WORLD"
Claims the Henry George loss is en-
tirely due to the disafection of the
Catholics on account of Georges atti-
tude toward the Pope in the McGlynn
case.
WHAT HEWITT SAYS.
Mayor Hewitt said to-day that the
result of yesterdays election was the
forerunner of certain denominations,
and the reelection of President Cleve-
land. He accounts for the shrinkage of
the labor vote bywhat he calls a change
OF sentiment among Henry Georges
former followers.

instrument of death has not been re-

joining together of the framework oi
the gallows, but that can he done in a
very little while.
